The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

As Jack finished his remarks, the room fell silent for a moment. Then, Samuel Evans, whose condition visibly

improved in recent days, spoke up with a newfound seriousness in his voice, “I totally agree with Jack! We used to

dismiss things based on mere intuition. That’s why I’ve been unable to find Jagoan for all these years!”

Desmond nodded in agreement, adding, “Sometimes, you have to defy your own intuition. After my sister’s

accident, we searched Aurous Hill for a while. When we couldn’t locate Jagoan, we intuitively assumed he had left

the city. But maybe he never left at all!”

Marcus remained silent for a moment, his brow furrowing in deep thought. Suddenly, he looked up and said, “Now

that I think about it, Aurous Hill holds so many mysteries. Moreover, based on the scattered clues we’ve gathered

so far, I suspect that the benefactor might actually be from Aurous Hill!”

Desmond chimed in, confirming Marcus’s observations, “Indeed. The benefactor chose to hold the Rejuvenation Pill

Auction here, granting the opportunity to the local Moore Group. I’ve received some news indicating that after the

auction, the Moore Group contributed over 10 billion U.S. dollars in taxes to Aurous Hill and donated billions more to

charity. It’s likely that the auction proceeds accounted for that sum. Moreover, the Moore Group invested over 100

million U.S. dollars in constructing a massive welfare home in Aurous Hill. They claim it’s the largest of its kind

globally, providing not only the basic needs for thousands of orphans but also top-notch educational resources. One

must have a deep affection for Aurous Hill to make such a decision!”

Jack’s eyes sparkled with newfound insight. He couldn’t help but blurt out, “It seems that our benefactor holds a

special place in their heart for orphans! Could it be that he, too, experienced being an orphan and now cares so

deeply for others in similar circumstances?”

Desmond nodded, acknowledging the possibility “That’s certainly a valid hypothesis, as Jack suggested.”

Jagoan’s aunt, Tece, couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer and said “If you investigate the welfare homes in

Aurous Hill, might you have a chance to uncover the identity of our benefactor?”

Hearing this, Jack’s eyes widened with excitement. In his mind, he exclaimed, “Isn’t this connecting the dots? If we

follow this lead, not only can we discover the benefactor, but we might also discover he is actually the grandson of

the Evans family!”

However, Desmond raised his hand, signaling for silence, “I think it’s best if we refrain from actively seeking out the

benefactor’s identity. They seem to know our every move. Who knows how they’d react if they became

dissatisfied.”

Marcus nodded in agreement, stating, “Brother is right. Now that we’re in Aurous Hill, we’re essentially under the

benefactor’s watchful eye. It’s best to maintain a low profile and avoid any unnecessary actions.”

Jack looked at the serious faces of the two brothers, feeling a pang of anxiety. He understood the gravity of the

situation but couldn’t help but worry. He silently sighed, “You two are truly remarkable individuals. If we miss this

lead, finding Jagoan again will be an arduous task!”

The following day at dawn, in the northern suburbs of Aurous Hill. Even before the sky had fully brightened, Zachary

stood by the decrepit outhouse in a farmyard. With a firm grip on the shovel, he carefully dug up the three

enchanted objects that Jagoan had entrusted to him. Despite the appalling odor emanating from the pit next to the

toilet, he persisted until he finally uncovered the mystical artifacts.

These artifacts had been buried alongside putrid pig innards for two days, resulting in an overwhelming stench.

Pinching his nose, Zachary carefully extracted the three items from the soil, brushing away the dirt with a soft

brush. He then meticulously wiped them with a dry towel and brought them close to his nose, taking a deep sniff. By

now, the blood and fishy odor had significantly diminished.

Based on Zachary’s experiences with handling antiques, this scent closely resembled the fragrance of newly

produced jade wares. Objects retrieved from pits, especially those buried near bodies, tend to retain a faint odor no

matter how meticulously they are cleaned after being unearthed. Even a year later, traces of the scent would

linger. Although imperceptible to ordinary people, individuals like Zachary, well-versed in the world of antiques,

could discern the difference simply by sniffing.

The two pieces of jade were initially ancient items. However, now, bearing this particular smell, those

knowledgeable in the field would almost certainly conclude that they originated from the pit. Satisfied that

everything was in order, Zachary hastily drove back to the city, heading straight to Antique Street.

In the world of Aurous Hill’s antique industry, the tradition of working from sunrise to sunset remains unshaken. It

was widely believed that conducting business after dark would increase the risk of theft and other untoward

incidents.

Consequently, merchants and stall owners in Antique Street commenced their operations at dawn and closed shop

before the sun vanished below the horizon.

Since leaving this place after following Don Albert for some time, Zachary had never returned. As he arrived at

Antique Street that morning, the lively commotion of the bustling market positively overwhelmed him; it felt almost

like stepping into a vibrant vegetable market.

Zachary was no stranger to Antique Street; he was considered an old-timer in these parts. Having previously

associated with Don Albert, he had temporarily parted ways but was now making his unexpected reappearance.

Many people recognized him, warmly greeting him with enthusiasm. “Zachary, my brother! What brings you back

here today? Ah, Zachary, you’re practically a celebrity now, working alongside Don Albert. How do you find time to

visit us, humble folks?”
